An Intervention Order (IVO) is a civil court order designed to safeguard individuals and families from violence, threats or harassment. These orders place conditions on the Respondent to prevent further contact or harm and to ensure the safety of the protected person.

There are two types of Intervention Orders in Victoria:

• Family Violence Intervention Orders (FVIOs) – protect individuals and children from violent or abusive family members or partners.
• Personal Safety Intervention Orders (PSIOs) – protect individuals from non-family members such as neighbours, acquaintances or colleagues.

At Ben von Einem & Associates, our family violence lawyers in Geelong represent both Applicants and Respondents in all aspects of IVO proceedings. We assist with:

• Preparing and lodging intervention order applications.
• Responding to and defending against IVOs.
• Appearing at Mention, Directions and Contested Hearings.

If you are applying for an IVO, our Geelong intervention order lawyers can ensure your application is detailed, accurate and supported by strong evidence. If you have been served with an order, we’ll help you understand your options and prepare a clear strategy for court.
